Substitute x-1 into f(x)=3x^4-5x^2+9 and expand to obtain the resulting polynomial. Practice algebraic expansion and coefficient collection for x^4, x^3, x^2, and x terms.

Apply the cube expansion to f(x)=x+1/x and verify that (f(x))^3 equals f(x^3)+3 f(1/x). Use the formula a^3+b^3+3a^2 b+3ab^2 to show both sides match.

Solve f(x) = f(2x+1) for f(x) = x^2 - 3x + 4 by expanding and simplifying to a quadratic, then apply the quadratic formula. Obtain roots x = -1 and x = 2/3.

Substitute x = a + b into f(x) = (x-a)^2(x-b)^2 to obtain f(a+b) = a^2 b^2, illustrating substitution and squared terms in business mathematics.

Substitute y into f(x) = (a x - b)/(b x - a) and simplify to prove f(y) = x, demonstrating the inverse relation of the function.

Compute f(x) = (x^3-1)/x^3 and substitute f(1/x) to show f(x) + 1/f(1/x) equals zero through term cancellation.

Prove for f(x)=(x-1)/(x+1) that f(1/x) = -f(x) and f(-1/x) = -1/f(x) through algebraic manipulation and cancellation.

Differentiate with respect to x using the power rule on x^-2, then differentiate x^3-27, and apply the product rule to (x-1)(x-2), showing 2x-3 as the result.

Apply quotient and power rules to differentiate functions, simplify expressions by dividing terms by x, and handle constants k in k x^n.

Explain how calculus applies to business by defining cost, demand, revenue, and profit functions, exploring marginal and average costs, break-even analysis, and maxima conditions under pure competition.

Determine break-even points by setting profit 0 with fixed cost 37,500, variable cost 200 per unit, and revenue R(x)=4825x−125x^2, yielding 12 and 25 units.

Given cost function c(x)=x+40 and revenue function r(x)=10x-0.2x^2, compute profit p(x)=r(x)-c(x). Break-even points occur at x=5 and x=40, so the company should produce 5 or 40 items.

Compute the break-even point by equating revenue 27x with the cost 16,100 plus 20x, giving x = 2,300 units.

Derive cost and revenue functions from fixed cost of rupees 4500 and variable cost of rupees 10 per pen, then compute break-even at 300 pens.

Example-5 derives the total revenue, cost, and profit functions for a commodity priced at six rupees per unit, with fixed cost of 20,000 and variable cost 35% of revenue.

Compute profit as R(x) minus C(x) with fixed cost 25,000 and variable cost 1500 per unit, using revenue 8500x - 400x^2; set P(x)=0 to find break-even at x=5 units.

Compute the break-even point for fixed cost 20,000, variable cost 75 per unit, and price 100 per unit. Break-even occurs at 800 units, and profit arises when x > 800.

Compute the average and marginal cost functions from c = 1500 + 30x + x^2, with mc = 30 + 2x, and evaluate at x = 20 to obtain 70.

Compute the cost function from the average cost, derive the marginal cost MC = 0.0006 x^2 - 0.1 x + 7, and at 100 units MC equals rupees 3.

Compute marginal cost from c(x)=1/3 x^3+3x^2-7x+16, then derive average cost c(x)/x, and show that the marginal average cost equals (x·MC - C)/x^2.

Compute the total cost function c(x)=3−2x+5x^2, derive average cost AC=c/x and marginal cost MC=c'(x), and verify that dAC/dx = (1/x)(MC−AC) by equating both sides.
